Tbh buying groceries in bulk is pretty much the one thing suburbia has going for it in my opinion. I’d say that needing to go shopping every day is the bigger hassle
Maybe it’s just a me thing, I absolutely hate having to plan meals for several days in advance, I’d much rather make frequent short stops if I don’t have to go out of the way for it. Plus worrying about produce going bad or not being able to have produce the few days before you go shopping
That’s fair. My diet is pretty much beans, rice, and tortillas so I don’t think too hard about what groceries I need. Plus it’s nice to buy silly amounts of stuff at wholesale stores
As my career and home life became more demanding of my time, the luxury of just meandering to the local grocer/grocery store every evening eventually faded.
Meal prep is essential for me every Sunday. There is zero waste if you buy the ingredients you require, cook, and then freeze. Ultimately this method is just such a more efficient use of time and resources for me personally.
